A dataset for methane concentrations and fluxes for alpine permafrost streams and rivers on the East Qinghai-Tibet Plateau

This dataset is a collation of 3-year direct measurement values of CH4 concentrations and fluxes for EQTP streams and rivers, along with information on location, hydrological, physical, and chemical conditions of the study sites. Given the rarity and high value of this EQTP data set, it will be very valuable for the next update to global C flux estimates.

Eight Mile Lake Research Watershed, Thaw Gradient, Ecosystem carbon balance: Eddy covariance CO2 flux data of a heterogenous landscape undergoing permafrost thaw.

In this larger study, we are asking the question: Is old carbon that comprises the bulk of the soil organic matter pool released in response to thawing of permafrost? We are answering this question by using a combination of field and laboratory experiments to measure radiocarbon isotope ratios in soil organic matter, soil respiration, and dissolved organic carbon, in tundra ecosystems. The objective of these proposed measurements is to develop a mechanistic understanding of the SOM sources contributing to C losses following permafrost thawing. We are making these measurements at an established tundra field site near Healy, Alaska in the foothills of the Alaska Range. Field measurements center on a natural experiment where permafrost has been observed to warm and thaw over the past several decades. This area represents a gradient of sites each with a different degree of change due to permafrost thawing. As such, this area is unique for addressing questions at the time and spatial scales relevant for change in arctic ecosystems. Understanding how landscape level physical and biological changes effect carbon cycling is important for estimating the carbon balance of an ecosystem undergoing permafrost thaw.

Eight Mile Lake Research Watershed, Carbon in Permafrost Experimental Heating and Drying Research (DryPEHR): Peak growing season aboveground biomass 2011-2017.

This drying and warming experiment addresses the following questions: 1) Does ecosystem drying, warming and permafrost thaw cause a net release or uptake of C from the ecosystem to the atmosphere?, 2) Does the decomposition of old C that comprises the bulk of the soil C pool influence ecosystem C loss? 3) How do drying and warmign affect plant communities and ecosystem properties? We are answering these questions using a combined warming and drying experiment (DryPEHR), which is situated with the Carbon in Permafrost Experimental Heating Research (CiPEHR) project and located in an upland tundra field site near Healy, Alaska in the foothills of the Alaska Range. Warming treatment here refers to growing season air temperature warming (~1C) using open top chambers (OTC) combined with soil 'warming' using snow fences during the snow covered months. Drying is achieve using an automated pumping system that lowers the water table in the dry plots. Soil warming began in 2008; OTCs and drying in 2011. Above ground plant biomass was surveyed non-destructively using a point-intercept method for all vascular and moss species at peak growing season.

Eight Mile Lake Research Watershed, Thaw Gradient Extended sites: Physical data from land cover classes from an upland watershed undergoing permafrost thaw.

This data set contains meausrements of soil properties (depth to permafrost and depth of organc matter) from sites throughout the wathershed within certain land cover types identified by an unsupervised landcover classification. The purpose was to see how land cover classes differed in soil properties and if we could detect diffences in classes undergoing permafrost thaw that results in thermokarst.
